HOW TO MAKE CHILI IN A CLAY POT

This is not a recipe for “dump it all into your slow cooker.” As much as I appreciate the ease of that idea, you simply miss out on the flavors created by browning your meat first and sautéing your aromatics. It really makes all the difference! Yes, it’s an extra step, but it’s worth it. Once you’ve cooked your meat and vegetables, you can dump everything into your slow cooker and let it take over.
